QuickBooks 2009 Upgrade - the Worth - the Cost

The NEW QuickBooks Pro 2009 accounting
software has very few new features to benefit a professional
practice.

QuickBooks 2006 or older

If you
are using QuickBooks 2006 or an earlier version, now
is the time to upgrade, according to Susan Gunn, the recognized expert
on using QuickBooks in a practice. If you are using Windows 2000, you will
not be able to upgrade to QuickBooks 2009. QuickBooks 2009 will work on
Windows XP and Vista operating systems.

Account
Reconciliation Changes

The Reconciliation window now
offers the user to sort transactions by date, payee name, check number, or
amount. Now if you enter anything in the check number field, such as ATM,
WTHDRW, etc., you can sort the reconciliation window by date, so
transactions will be listed chronologically. Gunn still recommends you
leave this field blank or with a check number, as this is the way you will
continue to see your bank statements.

Company
Snapshot

New to QuickBooks 2009, the Company Snapshot
provides a quick glance overview of the various aspects of QuickBooks.
View the Income & Expenses via graph, as well as asset, liability and
equity account balances.

Online
Banking

biggest disappointment to QuickBooks 2009
is the online banking window. Instead of simplifying the process, Intuit
jumped back to a cumbersome means of downloading transactions into
QuickBooks. As of this writing, it is Intuit
